it's time
Imagine Dragons (mp3tons.ru) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes
To ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was




Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

Overall Meaning

The song ā€œItā€™s Timeā€ by Imagine Dragons is an uplifting and motivational song that encourages people to pursue their dreams and not to give up. The lyrics talk about starting anew after hitting rock bottom (ā€œbottom of the pitā€) and working oneā€™s way up to the top. Itā€™s about leaving behind the past, accepting oneself, and embracing change. The song is essentially a call to action, urging listeners to take the first step towards their goals and not to be afraid of change.


The first verse talks about the end of a relationship and the realization that itā€™s time to move on (ā€œpacking my bags and giving the Academy a rain checkā€). The singer doesnā€™t want to disappoint anyone, but he also doesnā€™t want to be stuck in the same place anymore. The chorus (ā€œItā€™s time to begin, isnā€™t it?ā€) is an affirmation that now is the time to start fresh and make a change. The second verse uses metaphors to describe feeling lost and alone. The ā€œpath to heaven runs through miles of clouded hellā€ is a difficult journey, but itā€™s necessary to reach the top.


The repeated line ā€œIā€™m just the same as I was, now donā€™t you understand, Iā€™m never changing who I amā€ is a reminder that even with change and growth, the core of who we are remains the same. Itā€™s important to stay true to oneself and not to compromise oneā€™s values or beliefs.


Line by Line Meaning

So this is what you meant
I finally understand what you meant when you said you were tired


When you said that you were spent
When you said that you were exhausted and had nothing left to give


And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
It's time to start over, to work our way up from the bottom to the top


Don't hold back
Don't hesitate or restrain yourself


Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check
Leaving behind what's not important, focusing on what really matters


I don't ever want to let you down
I never want to disappoint you


I don't ever want to leave this town
I never want to leave the place where we belong


Cause after all
Because, ultimately,


This city never sleeps at night
This city is always active and full of life, even at night


It's time to begin, isn't it?
It's time to start over, don't you think?


I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I may grow and change slightly, but I'm still me


I'm just the same as I was
I haven't fundamentally changed who I am


Now don't you understand
Don't you see, don't you realize?


I'm never changing who I am
I will always be true to myself


This road never looked so lonely
This path I'm on seems more solitary than ever before


This house doesn't burn down slowly
Everything is changing too fast around me


To ashes
To destruction, to ruin

@cayden3470

Let's be honest, this wasn't recommended... you came here on purpose.




Good luck in 2020.

If you're reading this then you've made it. Sorry to say but it doesn't look like 2021 is going to be any better. Let's hope I'm wrong.

Oh, and thanks for the likes. See you on the flip side (2022).



@dabluehuman

So, this is what you meant?
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit
Right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain-check

I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain-check

I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes, to ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

So glad YouTube recommend me this song šŸ˜

[Verse 1]
So this is what you meant

Now, don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?

[Verse 2]
So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back
Turning the rags and giving the commodities a rain-check

[Pre-chorus 2]
I don't ever wanna let you down

[Bridge]
This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes, to ashes

[Chorus 3.1]
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger
But then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?

[Chorus 3.2]
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger
But then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
